My first post on this site, so hello to all.
I bought this a month or two ago from an auction site, and I absolutely love it. I lost my 1968 Cosmo in 1985 and have just felt the need to replace it with this 1966 version. I am so pleased I did. It cost me £xxxx here in the UK which might I think be a little below market price, but I am no profit taker as I can't envisage ever selling it. They seem to be on e-bay for that amount or more in GBP and USA Dollars.Would that seem about correct to you guys
It seems to me to be correct in every detail, although it was declared that one pusher had been replaced a year ago. It has some wear marks but they are very slight, and to my mind, for its age (the watch that is) it is in 99% condition. I don't want to have it restored as I will lose the Patina that makes it so appealing, and I don't think it needs it.
I haven't opened it and don't want to really, but have a receipt from an AD as to its service 1 year ago.
No 1089--- gold filled case on a breitling brown crock strap. Any comments would be appreciated,
Regards DOW

Welcome aboard! I'm a newb here as well, having bought my 67 Cosmo a few months ago. You'll find the regulars very helpful and informative.

Great pickup! The vintage Cosmo/Navi watches look terrific in gold.
